    I used to have what I thought was heartburn in the mid-1990s. As it happened I needed my gallbladder out. With all the fiery stuff I eat I am surprised I haven't an ulcer.

    I would like to try it. There's a tourist trap near the Queen Mary that sells gazillions of different sauces. They likely carry it.

    So true.

    I grew up on the farm. I primed tobacco along side the black folk, we all ate together and when we cooked, they ate. When they cooked, we ate.

    I doubt any of us had two more dollars more in our pocket than the next, black or white.

    We cooked and ate the same things. Fish frying with wood in a home made pan. Stews in the winter.

    The pigs we ate from the rooter to the tooter. Although I drew the line at chitlings, all the same.

    My grandparents had a big farm.My grandmother had breakfast done every morning at 6 a.m...They had a big dining room table and fed the family and farm hands.She cooked dinner and it was on the table at 12 o'clock.We fed family and farm hands At dinner and what ever guest that would pop in.Word got out that my grandmother was a good cook so we always had surprise visitors at 12 o'clock lol.We always fed who ever was there and I saw as many as 25 set at the table so she cooked enough to feed a small army 7 days a week.Everything fresh to this time of year and was some gold stories told at that dinner table and lots of good laughs.I sure do miss those days !I caught the school bus at my grandparents so I always had a great breakfast before school.

    Correct. There are at least four of these tourist "strip malls" near the pier, including one outside and one on board the Queen Mary. They have some cool shit in between the gimmicky chain restaurants and merit exploration even by local residents.

    We must live in a parallel universe the same.

    I had a grandma on one side and a granny on the other, both the same. At granny's, she had a kitchen table that was home made. The legs were turned down to almost round and almost the same size. It was just shy of 8ft long and had two wooden benches on both sides with chairs at the end. We all ate there, family and the help, and gone by 6AM because by 6AM we were wasting day light, a precious commodity back then.

    We all ate at noon as well. My granny and her sister would leave the barns at 10 or so and lunch would be ready at noon. Eat and run because we had to get a barn by quitting time.

    In our world were all poor in wealth, black and white the same, but were rich with family and friends, both black and white. As I got older, the Mexicans as well. When we shared meals I quickly found out my gut was not the same gut the good lord gave others. LOL

    To this day I still cook with wood. We are cooking a pig tomorrow for a I DO BBQ wedding party. It is funny as we always 'cooked a pig' and now that has transformed to 'we are doing whole hog'. I must have missed the memo. LOL

    But soul food is always associated with black people but there were a fair share of white people eating the same because both groups were poor. They were eating what they could afford and cooked the best way they knew how.

    Around here it would be better called 'po-folk food'. LOL

    Oh boy. First wings, now Southern food. =P~ I grew up on soul food since my people are Okies and Texans. I have dreamed since forever of a Southern food fest here in CA where countries (poor blacks) and rednecks (poor whites) would have food trucks and booths. There could be a contest to see which state has the best soul food. Especially the best barbecue, and chicken-n-waffles.

    Bamaman and Slim12, I concur that black and white soul food are the same. It is more about class than melanin. What is funny is that Southerners seem to have longer lifespans than the rest of the nation despite all the rich fried foods we consume.

    I am not a doctor by any means.

    I attribute that to the humidity. We sweat. I just came from outside setting up for the wing ding tomorrow. I have been doing a 95 degree, shirt soaking cleanse since this morning. I will change shirts and go at the cleanse again.

    Within an hour I will be able to wring water out of my shirt.

    It has no medical basis, just how it seems.

    But seriously look at all the processed foods in your grocery store.You would prob be better off to eat fried chicken every day and stay away from processed foods.lol Old folks didnt eat all that junk and ate a natural diet .Yes they ate fried foods but it wasn't every day and when they did the portions were not large.

    E.G here is one.for you.I am the first one.in my family to go to school with black people.The year was 1975.
     
  19. great info Bamaman,,me personly,have always liked the cheaper cuts of meat..I like the meat to be soft,cooked down for hours..beef braised in stout is so good.no magic to it.just seal the beef.when it's browned of,put it in stout,water(with seasoning).and cook it very low till it's cooked..serve on top of strong cheddar mash....ha,ha.but you probably got your own take on it lol.....

    True.

    Down here we say 'eating/living high on the hog'. Translated to back in the day, slaves and the white help too, ate what was left from what was used in the big house. Pigs feet, chitterlings, ….goes the same with the beef, liver, shank meat,...chicken.....dark meat, livers, gizzards....etc. etc.

    In about ten minutes we will put a pig on the grill, in modern terms 'whole hog'.

    I will eat a little high on the hog today, then some middle, then some lower and my foavorite is stomach meat. Straight heart failure waiting to happen right there.
